The best espresso beans are smooth and nuanced with rich crema. They also contain less caffeine than drip-style espresso.





Origin

The story of the origins of espresso coffee beans has a fascinating twist. According to legend, an 9th century Ethiopian goat-herder named Kaldi discovered the very first coffee plant in his herd and observed that it had a unique invigorating effect on his herd. He began feeding his herd these fruits of the Coffea arabica plant, and they became stronger and healthier, and began to become more active. This was the birth of a beverage that is now enjoyed by many all over the world.

Espresso is created by forcing hot water through finely ground coffee beans. The resulting brew is thick and concentrated, with a layer on top of tight, smooth bubbles known as crema. This is the hallmark of an excellent cup of espresso and has helped create a cult around the drink.

Espresso is not just a popular drink in cafes, but it can be made at home. Making sure you have the appropriate equipment and roasting your own beans will help you to get that perfect cup every time. It is more time consuming than just buying a coffee at the shop, but it's worth it in terms of taste and quality.

It is crucial to select the right coffee beans for your espresso to ensure a rich and delicious drink. Although many people use regular coffee beans to make their espresso, this is not recommended since they are roasted differently and ground in a different way, and this can result in the most weak or bitter coffee.

We offer espresso coffee beans in bags of 1kg that are roasted and ground specifically for espresso brewing. You'll get an excellent cup of coffee each time. We only purchase Arabica and Robusta coffee beans from farms committed to sustainable farming and high ethical standards. We offer this specialty coffee from the Colombian region of Huila which is renowned for its fertile valleys and snow-capped volcanoes which have enhanced the soil with minerals over time.

Roast

Roasting is the process that transforms raw green beans into the coffee we drink. The roasting process is also responsible for the coffee's taste color, aroma, and colour. The roasting process requires a lot of skill and experience in order to control the temperature so that the beans don't get burned or become bitter.

When roasting, beans can lose up a fifth of their moisture. They also expand in size. They also begin to release carbon dioxide, which causes them to expand and break which is referred to as the first crack. The first crack is the moment when sugars begin to caramelize, the bound water begins to escape and the structure of the bean begins to break down allowing oils to move from their little pockets in the seed. It is an important stage in the roasting process, and If it is not done properly it could result in the coffee being damaged.

A well-roasted coffee will be rich and full of flavor, with smooth, balanced taste. It will have a strong aftertaste and minimal sourness, but still retains the essence of bean. This is achieved by roasting the beans until they are to a medium brown and have lost the majority of their moisture.

After the seeds have been roasted and cooled, it is crucial to cool them as quickly as you can to stop the seeds from roasting further. This will release more carbon dioxide. The final result will depend on the speed at which they are cooked and the speed at which they are cooled.

Espresso coffee is generally a blend. While single origin beans work for brewing techniques but the smoky flavours of espresso require a mix of different bean types.

To get the best espresso it is recommended you use a high quality espresso machine. The top machines will include an additional water tank to drink the espresso and a larger capacity boiler, which allows for faster heating. To increase the quality of extraction, fill the water tank with fresh, cold water.

Dose and Yield

One shot of espresso is made by pushing a gram of ground coffee through the brewing process. The ratio of espresso liquid to ground coffee should be less than or equal to 1:2. The precise ratio is dependent on the density of your specific beans. Some coffees are heavier than other when ground to the same size. This is why a precise scale can be extremely useful!

The temperature of brewing will affect the way you use your beans. The ideal range is between the 195-205 degree Fahrenheit range. This is because the flavour compounds in your beans are best extracted in this range. A higher or lower temperature can impact the rate, quantity and consistency of extraction as well as the texture, flavor and thickness of your crema.

There will always be an equilibrium between brewing your coffee to an extremely strong strength and also having a rich taste. The more you extract, the stronger your coffee will be. However it also increases the risk for bitterness and acidity. You may be tempted to make up for this by making recipes that have a high yield. But, when you increase the multiple you are also increasing the amount of water that flows through the grinds. This is significant and usually means that your flavor is being lost and diluted.

The dose is the most flexible control, but there are many other factors that affect the strength of the espresso. The most important of these is the ratio, as well as your grinder's precision as well as the size of your portafilter and the speed at the speed at which you push the shot.

A higher ratio (less than 1:2) will produce an intense, balanced espresso with a sweet mouthfeel. On the other hand, a shorter ratio will produce more intense but less balanced espresso. The trick is to find the ideal balance for your taste. You can achieve this by playing with the dose and changing the ratio based on your preferred intensity and flavor payoff.

Brewing

Espresso beans are ground more finely than regular coffee beans and brewed using more pressure. This results in a stronger espresso, with more intense aromas and flavors. Espresso is used to make lattes, cappuccinos and other coffee drinks that are usually made from milk. 1 kg coffee beans is also mixed with other kinds of coffee in baking, or used as a garnish on chocolate- or coffee-based desserts.

Espresso coffee can also be prepared by a variety of brewing methods, including Turkish coffee, French press, cold drip, and brew. The type of brewing method you select will be based on your personal taste and the equipment you have. Try different methods and ingredients can help you find the perfect cup of espresso.

It is possible to use espresso beans for other beverages, however they should be reserved for espresso-based beverages. Espresso beans are roasted longer generally past the second crack. This gives them more dark, toasted and a more intense flavor. Espresso beans are often cooked at higher levels of volatile substances like trigonelline 2 and chlorogenic acids 4 that contribute to the bitterness and body of espresso.

Although it is technically feasible to make espresso using any type of coffee bean roasted but this will not produce the desired results. This is because espresso beans are roasted in order to produce particular tastes, such as chocolatey or fruity, which can be difficult to duplicate with other roasts.

The key to making espresso is achieving a good crema. It is a thick, rich layer of coffee foam that rises to the top of the coffee after it has been extracted at high pressure. A great crema indicates that you have incorporated the required fundamental inputs of your coffee beans grinder, grinder, resistance in the coffee bed, and the temperature of your water to make the perfect espresso.

The quality of the coffee beans is crucial to achieving a good creamy crema. The finest espresso beans are those that have been roasted at a medium to dark roast and then ground as finely as is possible. They must also be fresh, as whole beans will retain their flavor and taste longer than ground varieties. It is also essential to keep beans in a sealed container free of heat and moisture.
